Seasonal Xmas Card Design

Seasonal Xmas Card Design

Christmas is time for celebration and giving. Its one of the times of the year I enjoy, mostly to take a break, and have a fun and festive time with family and friends. One of the ways I like to pass on the Christmas cheer is to create a personalised Xmas card for clients as well as friends and family.

Here is a xmas card I created this year, I decided to illustrate a simple xmas card with recognizable xmas motifs. My work is heavily influenced by nature and it was simple decision to illustrate a reindeer and a robin which are associated with xmas and the winter season.

I intended both the robin and the reindeer to both stand out from the rest of the xmas card illustrations. The white colour Robin and Reindeer pop out in contrast to the flat purple background colour. The rest of the decorative illustration is made up of silhouette leaf, winterberry and holy, interwoven with xmas festive bells, ribbons and stars to create a Christmas card. I happy to send this xmas illustration card to clients and friends to thank them for their support during the year, look out for them in the post.

Life Drawing

Yesterday was my first life drawing class since I was 16, it was very refreshing to be drawing again, it will be a great positive influence on my work, I always loved drawing, and creating hand made artworks. its interesting how im working alot with digital media within my illustration. It will be nice to find a balance now.

12/06/2008 : NEW WEBSITE, A NEW STUDIO

A New Beginning…

2008 is a year of new beginnings. I have begun a new drive and push to move further and higher. 2007 was a great year with some amazing clients and briefs, and i want this to continue into 2008 and beyond.

I’m proud to announce I have been working hard on this website. It’s been a long time coming! Rather then have somebody else design it for me, I created it myself. This way I have achieved my aim. My first site was a good attempt, but it was lacking. I hope you will enjoy my work and find it easy to navigate.

New Studio…

I am moving into a new studio in Shoreditch. It was time to move on, change is always a good thing, new ideas new enviroment, which im looking forward to. It will be great to be based outside the home for a few days.

As for what happens next, i’ll be based in the new studio churning out some new work. I will post it up on the website, and of course I will keep the blog section updated.

So that’s it. I’ll be updating every month or so, and hopefully pushing things on with my work. I hope you enjoy seeing how things have been going so far. Thanks to Nikkin who helped me put the site together.
